The Jacinta O' Brien Memorial 10k Race

        

Jacinta O'Brien 10k, formerly known as the Plassey 10k

FAMILY FRIENDLY, FITNESS FRENZY!!!

Come and Join the FUN with us and partake in a 10K Charity road race in aid of S.A.D.S by wheeling, walking, jogging or running!

Be one of the first 300!

First 300 to register will receive a bag of goodies including a 2010 Jacinta O’Brien 10k memorial T-shirt sponsored by River Rock.

 Also with that in mind, upon finishing the race you will receive a recovery drink and a bar of chocolate for all your good efforts as well as supporting our cause.

Warm up to music in the plaza

Try out an exciting new style of warm up for this event catering for all fitness levels with Richie Clifford from the infamous Total Body workouts. Not only will this warm up mobilize your joints, raise your pulse and stretch you out, but  this enthusiastic, energetic, upbeat cardio-choreographed aerobic warm up will prepare you for the event ahead and might even give you a smile if you haven’t tried it before.

Surprise celeb at the start of the race!!!

I’d love to tell you who but I’m afraid that would ruin all the fun!

Rush, Race, Run and Register before the Deadline!

You can either download a registration form on the Registration tab above or send it in to us here at the University Sports Arena or register with us (Sport Science Students) most nights of the week from 6-9pm at the Arena or even request a form at the desk and they will be more than happy to look after you.

Also you can register the Saturday the night before from 6-9pm or the morning of the race from 9am until 12.30am (2hrs before the start of the race)

Avoid the deadline and be there at the finish line!

No registration will be accepted after 12am for time management and organisational purposes.

On a personal note

We look forward to welcoming the family and friends of Jacinta who will be there at the race.
